“If your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete” 
​- ​Jack Kornfield  

Caregivers need care too.  In caregiving, you hold space for others on a daily basis, offering your time, presence and energy. As a parent, grandparent, therapist, or teacher if you don’t take time out to nourish yourself, to hold space for your own self, caring for others can leave you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and anxious. In these monthly restorative hatha yoga practices, you will learn tools that are already within you to cultivate peace, calm and compassion. Often, caregivers are in survival mode, in a chronic state of fight, flight or freeze.  These hatha yoga practices will help to regulate your nervous system and shift you into a state of healing. 

WHAT TO EXPECT
We're thrilled to have experienced yoga & meditation teacher Jenny Lintvedt sharing her gifts with us in this special monthly class offering! Practices will incorporate simple yoga postures, breathing exercises and meditation aided by props (blocks and yoga straps, blankets and eye pillows, essential oils and music). You’ll experience the powerful support of community as we move and breathe together in a supportive atmosphere, creating a sacred container to experience yourself; to grow, to feel, to express and rediscover the vibrant life force that is within you.  This class is appropriate for those who are beginners to yoga and experienced yoga students too.  We provide yoga mats and props, you are welcome to bring your own mat if preferred.
